“My Job Is To Keep The Game Close” | Buffalo Sabres Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen After Loss To Florida

Did you guys just feel because you actually had a good push after that second goal did you just feel hey sometimes breaks don’t go your way let’s keep playing yeah that happens sometimes you know it’s really nobody’s fault you know Demon’s you know job to try to cut

That pass and that’s that’s what they did on that it’s it’s not their fault you know that it deflects into the net you know that just happens sometimes it’s unlucky but you know overall I feel like we had a really good uh really good first period you know we we let into two

Goals but just you know otherwise than that I think we play the Sol first as a group how are you guys feeling at the second intermission I mean despite some of the struggles you guys were still only down by a goal at that point you know that’s the thing you know

We were only down by a goal um really isn’t matter how you get there if you’re down by a goal going to the third you you know it doesn’t matter how what the score is you still have a chance to win the game and that all that matters at

That point and we kind of we kind of looked into you know that way going to the third so you know I think it it sucks that we lost but I think we uh you know it was a good effort in the end you had to feel good with the way

You did help the team in the second period you made a lot of great saves so at the end of the period you know you kind of helped your guys out Mak kept it at a one goal game going to the third you had to feel good about that yeah it

Felt great it kind of is you know what I’ve been talking about U uh what’s the best part of you know playing well is to you know help help help your teammates help them to win uh I you know win as a team so you know

That’s kind of my job to you know try to keep the game close uh when we’re not playing maybe uh as well as we want to so you know in the end as as I said it doesn’t matter really how how we got there but it was a one goal game uh

Going through the Third Kind of a shame you had to get they give they got a five on three there in the third period they’re a good hockey team actually they actually the best team in the league right now as far as points percentage goes and you know when they get a five

On three they’re going to be often dangerous yeah I feel like that’s that’s kind of why sucks to lose so much cuz we lost you know maybe it wasn’t maybe necessarily that exact like goal you know you you never know how the game would have gone if that they didn’t

Score on that but you know in the end we lost by one goal um and that maybe is what sucks the most about this one I think we put up a good fight uh it wasn’t a perfect game by any means but kind of losing on that fin three kind of

You know it just sucks
